On Eugene's 10.6 kernel phone will not switch off while charging?

Before I flash Eugene's 10.6 kernel zip, can anyone check if the phone boots from power off while plugged in to a wall charger? This happened with the ICS_ICUP_1.zip. Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] Burner2K0:
Is 10.6 non wipe? Cause I just got done flashing 10.5 and its smooth as a baby's butt :D
[Vibrant Android Development] neobuddy89:
Please discuss this in Eugene's topic. You will find more support over there.
[Vibrant Android Development] mveksler:
Flashed v10.6 + Nelson Kernel and GPS wont work anymore no lock.

UPDATE:

I had to go into recovery and delete dalvik and fix permissions to fix it.

However, same problem with GPS not working after phone goes into deep sleep.
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
I have it 200 to 800
[Vibrant Android Development] tinyaznboi:
have it at 200-1000 for no lag
[Vibrant Android Development] nuwanmw1988:
wow..these colors look great.
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
Are you using voodoo color ?
[Vibrant Android Development] Burner2K0:
Phone would randomly boot here and there, it's getting on my nerves.
[Vibrant Android Development] tinyaznboi:
try wiping dav and cache and fix permissions. If that doesn't work try reflashing
[Vibrant Android Development] coasterman927:
This is non-wiping, correct? Can I flash v10.6 straight from v10 without hassle?
[Vibrant Android Development] chaulklet:
v10.6 is running what kernel? Nelson or eugene?
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
Nelson's. Eugene posted a link in the thread to his.

Guys read the OP its always updated. Page 1
[Vibrant Android Development] tinyaznboi:
yessir! from now on you wont need to do anything but flash over. Unless told otherwise on OP
[Vibrant Android Development] chaulklet:
I do read it. I was just confused whether to flash v10.6 then the update for v10.6 for eugene's kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] tinyaznboi:
I believe it is Nelson's but if you want Eugene w/voodoo color etc. go to this thread

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1432051

and flash the kernel. Read the op on that thread so you know what's in it.
[Vibrant Android Development] lorendroll:
Camera video recorder is very twitchy with 10.5 Nelson kernel. 720p and 480p lags seriously. Going to try Eugen's one. Camcorder was ok with Nelson v10 non oc, but overclocked version was as bad as 10.5.
[Vibrant Android Development] chaulklet:
Yeah already got that downloaded. :D but what's in the v10.6 changelog is what I don't get. What gps fix for the kernel that has to do with eugene kernel.
[Vibrant Android Development] lorendroll:
It seems GPS still doesn't lock again after entering deep idle mode (neither Nelson nor Eugens kernels). Am I right?
[Vibrant Android Development] mailboy1412:
I'm coming from v10. If I want Eugene Kernel, I need to flash 10.6 zip without wipe, then flash Eugene Kernel, right??

Well, I got it.
[Vibrant Android Development] Voltage Spike:
Yes, you are correct. (At least from experimentation.) gpsd stops (crashes?) when going into deep sleep. I tried manually restarting the service (via "setprop ctl.start gpsd"), but since the GpsLocationProvider doesn't restart it apparently never picks up the new socket for command exchange.

Before the Deep Sleep, though, it does an amazing job.
[Vibrant Android Development] idinaxui:
Great

GPS works in 10.6 version, will try after deep sleep. camera still laggy and haven't tested mute/unmute bug yet. One more option I wish to have is to choose where camera stores images on internal or SD card. I had this option in Froyo builds and was very handful. Is there any chance to get this?

Everything else is SUPER SUPER GREAT! Thanks neo!
[Vibrant Android Development] XiaoSiuMai:
what app do you guys use to pick your ringtones? extended ringtones has been kinda wierd on ics.
[Vibrant Android Development] Goten310:
Great ROM! Has anyone tried changing their screen density? Does this ROM scale correctly and the settings stick?
[Vibrant Android Development] Moped_Ryder:
My home kept reloading when I closed any app. I adjusted

ro,HOME_APP_ADJ=1

and it has not had to reload since. Great ROM!!!
[Vibrant Android Development] Chikko:
i have ICS passion v10, if i flash v10.6 i lose all data?
[Vibrant Android Development] mailboy1412:
No, just flash v10.6 over v10
[Vibrant Android Development] ebpfdane:
I've been using mp3 ringtone v2.2

It's free from market, good selection and easy to use. Never had a problem with it. I recommend.
[Vibrant Android Development] jsparakov:
Wanted to report on GPS for v10.6, updating from v10.5. Nothing has improved on my end with GPS using Nelson's Kernel + v10.6 update for v10.5 + ICS Passion GPSD binary (faster locks). GPS still no longer works after (apparently) a deep sleep. As I've come to expect, it locks beautifully when it does work, consistently when after reboot.

BUT I have options now thanks to all the hard work of the dev community. I'm skeptical if Eugene's Kernel + GPS Binary will fix it since I'm not exactly sure what it means by "consistent locks". In any case I'll give it a rundown since it's a beta (update: same issues). As always, this is merely an inconvenience where I have to restart every time I need to use the GPS. Apparently unresponsive (no icon at all) after a deep sleep. Nearly everything else on this ROM is flying atm even as a beta.

edit: Also always open to providing any logs, data, etc. Not sure if that helps.

edit2: GPS does not return to full glory after deep sleep in Eugene's kernel + Eugene's GPSD Binary v10.6 either. Will report on the other thread, too. For the two Kernels + GPSD Binary combos I've tried, disabling and enabling the GPS worked as expected consistently before deep sleep (cycling through location dependent apps like GPS test, Angry GPS, google maps a couple times, letting them ask for GPS to be re-enabled), but issues discussed seem to happen once deep sleep is triggered.

know I'm repeating myself a lot, but doing that for readability. I'm not good at reading myself. :)
[Vibrant Android Development] Abu-7abash:
Wow. I've sold my Vibrant about 3 months ago when GPS wasn't even functional on GB and now back checking on the threads you've ICS up and running bug free!!

Kudos to the amazing devs here, seriously you guys are the only reason users are still clinging to this phone.
[Vibrant Android Development] jsparakov:
Not bug free, but light years ahead of whatever Samsung and T-Mobile has ever provided to their customers. For shame.
[Vibrant Android Development] enzomtrx:
Clinging is the wrong word. Glued to my hand, this mighty phone is. -_-
[Vibrant Android Development] granduke:
My GPS story...

Most noone ever reports on navigation just on the sat locks.

I've been struggling with GPS since launch day. My issue has always been

track drift. Standing still my location would zigzag all over the screen.

I'm happy and surprised that this is the first ROM which gives me a steady track.

But as I've learned over the last 18 mounths the real test of any Vibrant GPS "fix" is whether it will survive the next boot, next day, or next 5 minutes.

Will test this out. But glad this ROM has gotten me further than ever before.
[Vibrant Android Development] xriderx66:
Guys, or neo, I'm on 1.5 with Eugene's kernel, I don't use GPS at all so would it really even matter if i flashed the 1.6
[Vibrant Android Development] guapinoy:
This was also the issue for me. The only kernel/gps file that worked for me even after deep sleep was the Passion V9 Kernel @jrafael put together http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=20859519&postcount=483 Flashed it over Passion 10.5 and I got 17 second lock after first boot, 50 - 70 second locks after coming out of deep sleep.

It does break proximity sensor and of course voodoo color/sound is gone. But if you're looking for consistently functional GPS for Passion or OneCosmic's ICS Port, this is the way to go.

Now if only someone can make a Kernel that would combine all those elements into one...
[Vibrant Android Development] davidisflash:
simplest battery calibration method

I take it with the latest build using the automatic calibration script built in when charged to 100% and rebooting, we still need to fully drain without charge then charge back up to 100% when phone is off without interruption right? Just checking to see if anyone has noticed a difference either doing this longer method or just simply letting the script just do its thing.
[Vibrant Android Development] vibrantliker:
obtaining clear voice

Mute & Unmute on incoming calls to obtain clear voice

Does that really work cause that's the only thing causing me to keep leaving ICS. You can only do it when actually on a call, right? and is it a 1 time fix or for every call?
[Vibrant Android Development] sil3ncer7:
I do it every call just out of habit. if not then theyll complain n ill swap it real fast. About to flash 10.6 now but as of v10 its been every call instance for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] TFordham:
Dude, you really have a hard on for Voodoo Color. :-P
[Vibrant Android Development] MV10:
You never need to drain it. Just power off, charge to 100%, wipe battery stats, run normally to full discharge. Once you wipe the stats, it assumes the battery is at 100% and starts learning your usage and the battery's "behaviors" from there. Anything you did to the battery before you wipe the stats is irrelevant.

I'm kinda bored with Bionix... I keep hoping this one will stabilize. So far it doesn't sound like something I could safely rely upon for my day-to-day business... fingers crossed.
[Vibrant Android Development] gatorbob:
Thanks

Just wanted to say thanks as this is by far the best ROM I have used on my Vibrant (and I have tried almost all). Mute/Un-mute and variable GPS performance are the only two "bugs" I have, but otherwise a great daily-driver with very good battery performance for me.
[Vibrant Android Development] orgwizard:
finally grew a pair

and decided to jump to this rom from cm7....and have to say like others...this is really awesome and much more stable that cm7.

findings....seem to be similar to most..using nelson kernal currently on v10

* had the music stutter issue when phone screen went off...setting to 200mhz fixed that

* have the screen pattern screen hang at times...I do think it's also when I'm around or connected to wifi. though with mine...I don't turn screen on and off like others, just let site for generally no more than 5 seconds or less and it starts repsonding...like it's trying to catch up in the background. 200mhz didn't seem to help much.

* had phone lock up today for first time...after being plugged into power over night...by used to happen with cm7 too.

* have the same mute/unmute bug as others...trying out what another user suggested to have tasker toggle it when phone is answered...it does make me wonder though...supposedly cm7 had the same issue...thought by the time I started using it I never saw it...but I did see folks in the threads complaining about a delay during the start of a call...so makes me wonder if their fix was just a scripted mute/unmute too.

* battery life seems on par or better than cm7...though still too early.

* have over 150 apps installed...but aggressivly controlled most with autostarts so I don't have crap starting up randomly...without my trying to use it...this has always helped improve my performance.

* odd one that I've not see mentioned...or maybe I missed...have autobrightness enabled...and when the phone is about to timeout the display it goes dark for a sec or two..then seem to get brighter...maybe to max brightness..then screen turns off...not an issue...just odd.

* only other anomoly...when I scroll the the farthest left screen on the launcher, I get a line running top to bottom on the farthest left edge of the screen....if I move to any other screen..it's gone....again...not really an issue..just odd.

again...neo, nelson and anyone else working on this...thanks...you guys are awsome. will have donation coming soon.

10.6 here I come
[Vibrant Android Development] steventbianco:
I am on 10.6 with the stock kernel noticing intermittent lag on the lock screen again. Just reporting, not complaining. Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] scsi_2k:
Battery life is awesome on 10.5 but GPS did not work as before. After trying the 3 different 10.6 updates, there are 9-14 satellites but no lock.

Edit: Flashed 10.6 Full and now getting locks.
[Vibrant Android Development] pault949:
I just flashed 10.6 over 10 and the mute/unmute bug still persists for me. I am not using any of the other kernels, just the standard 10.6.

Has anyone else seen the mute/unmute bug disappear since flashing 10.6?

Thanks.

EDIT: Please disregard. I read the change log and saw that it still persists.
[Vibrant Android Development] getnbzy:
This ROM is flying. Super job NEO. Got a question for the community though. I know you can use titanium to freeze apps but that also removes them from the app drawer. After a reboot i'll see that 10-12 apps are running that i don't plan on using anytime soon and that drags down my available memory. What I want to do is be able to pick out certain rarely used apps and set them to NEVER auto start and NEVER start when rebooting, but still want to be able to click on them when needed instead of having to go into TB every time I need an app and unfreeze first. Any info. is greatly appreciated.
[Vibrant Android Development] theclarkster:
App shortcut?

So like everyone else here, I must add my tremendous appreciation for the work done here on such an incredible achievement with this phone. I often watch from the sidelines on what's going on here, but I couldn't resist this one! Thanks for all your work!

I just have a quick question, though (well aware that this may not be the proper place for this and I'm fully prepared to be ushered off the stage ;)). It appears that in ICS whenever one installs an app from the market, it automatically places a shortcut to that app on the homescreen. Not a deal breaker by any means, but not preferable to me either. Is there a setting somewhere to disable this behavior? Keep up the good work on this amazing ROM!
[Vibrant Android Development] renegadedj:
I am using the OC/UV kernel on 10.5 and I my lockscreen broke. None of them worked. I ended up dling Magiclocker. The lag was there when i tried using Magiclocker for an hour, after that (up to now 8 hours later) lag is all gone.

Anyone else experiencing broke stock lockscreens though?
[Vibrant Android Development] orgwizard:
arrrg

ok..so musta had a senior moment...

downloaded and installed Nelson's Kernel + v10.6 update for v10.5 + ICS Passion GPSD binary (faster locks)

over v10

suggesstions...do I just get the full and roll over the existing with that?
[Vibrant Android Development] sada23:
You could flash the 10.5 over and then reflash 10.6
[Vibrant Android Development] orgwizard:
where is that...the full one I'm downloading now says it's 10.6 and the old ones listed start and 10 and go down
[Vibrant Android Development] romitkin:
hi.

Since v10, The phone occasionally reboots itself (I see the boot animation).

This happens mostly during a call, so it ends the conversation.

Could you please check it?

Thanks.
[Vibrant Android Development] hmpohjola:
You can disable the auto shortcut from Market settings
[Vibrant Android Development] sada23:
Donwload the full 10.6. Flash it and then you could flash any of the kernel version updates.
[Vibrant Android Development] renegadedj:
Yea it's the Au-to add widget option. untick to stop from adding home screen shortcuts :)
[Vibrant Android Development] alexdemonumber3:
so everything seems to be working amazingly! the camcorder is sketchy though with whatever kernel came on the update and I'm not OC'd. I'm trying nelsons kernel cause people have been having success with the camcorder on it. anyone have any better more knowledgeable suggestions? thanks!
[Vibrant Android Development] SlakWReX:
It looks ****ing amazing lol!!
[Vibrant Android Development] JLundberg:
GPS

So at this point in the beta stage, there still is no understanding at to why the GPS works on some Vibrant's but not on others correct?

I know the GPS has always been an issue on the Vibrant.

Does anyone know if it's kernel related or rom? Has anyone who has it working flashed a different rom or kernel and had the GPS fail?

Just wondering
[Vibrant Android Development] mveksler:
On 2.2 my GPS worked perfectly fine but since GB and now ICS it only partially works. Currently, i can get current location but if i try to use navigation, it would saty at searching for GPS forever. The closest thing I have seen on GB is EB Bullet Kernel which had GPS working for me 95% of the time.
[Vibrant Android Development] tpierce89:
x2 you shouldnt have any issues
[Vibrant Android Development] cyberpyr8:
Oddly enough it works great for me on this rom. My phone has always had problems with GPS until I got to CM7. The hardware is a problem on these phones but the software seems to enhance the problems. I find some kernels and roms work much better than others but each of the Vibrants I have act differently.
[Vibrant Android Development] mike21pr:
Great news!!! I'm looking mainly for better battery life and overall smoother performance. The jerky homescreen gets to me lol

Take ur time to release a masterpeice. Thanks for everything
[Vibrant Android Development] JLundberg:
cyberpyr8 and mveksler,

Did you flash directly from an odin or from the rom you were on?
[Vibrant Android Development] Smartassassin:
i safely flashed from jvt

Sent from my phone, not yours.
[Vibrant Android Development] berryp:
I've experienced this issue several times; it can be sat on my desk then just drop straight into the Nexus boot screen (with the animation) and will remain stuck in a boot-loop.

Next time it happens I'll post a logcat output for the error that causes the infinite loop.
[Vibrant Android Development] nextelbuddy:
is it a known issue in V3 or V2 where the device doesnt enter Deep Sleep?

my device will chew through a full battery in 9 hours and be at 0% turning off. 2 days in a row even with battery calibration.

i like how CPUSPY was installed by default but using it shows it never enters deep sleep mode even after leaving idle for an hour.

and no im not complaining at all just offering more information from basic usage of this wonderful beta rom.

thank you very much for this!
[Vibrant Android Development] berryp:
You'd need the Android SDK and tools installed. You can view logs directly on the phone using one of the many logcat viewer apps but you would have to go back through quite a lot of logs before you'll find the Java exception - which is a pain on that screen and I'm not sure if you can copy and paste.
[Vibrant Android Development] mveksler:
Directly from the ROM. You flash it twice one for the kernel and cwm and other for the OS. Just follow instructions totally safe.
[Vibrant Android Development] Blars1206:
I have only had the random reboots when overclocked to 1.3ghz, but yesterday I removed CPU master and started using voltage control and everything seems to be a little smoother and hasn't rebooted on me since even when set to 1.3ghz. I also used Titanium backup to freeze all the apps I don't use, and that alone improved the performance a lot. I even froze the GPS apps since it has never worked for me. Though I'm not sure exactly which app I froze caused the improvement. I installed betterbatterystats to see if I can track down the wakelocks. Someone posted a link to the market version, but the developer of the app has it free for download on xda. Anyway, those couple things helped for me. Also someone mentioned that Google maps would not login, it did the same for me but about 5 minutes after opening maps I was prompted that I need to grant permissions and after that it worked and is still working fine. Another person mentioned that they were prompted to grant permissions even longer after opening maps, so just give it time.
[Vibrant Android Development] tpierce89:
I posted most of the log on pg 69 in my post. Not sure if the rest is needed
[Vibrant Android Development] JLundberg:
I know. I'm already running it. I was just gathering data as to why my GPS does not detect.

Thanks for your information.
[Vibrant Android Development] berryp:
I don't see anything untoward there. The error below shouldn't cause a boot-loop - a brief Google suggests this is related to apps rather than OS related services. I suspect the error is somewhere much higher up then where the log starts in your post (in in the logcat output.)

java.io.FileNotFoundException: com/google/inject/internal/Finalizer.class

[Vibrant Android Development] tpierce89:
I know how to start it. Wifi kill has sent it into the bootloop many times. Other random services have done it, but wifi kill seems to do it every time. Im going to try to get more info. I know it is triggered by certain apps, but it will have to be addressed at some point

Finally, I thought I was the only one. I've been asking about this for days...Reboots during an active call about 3 to 5 minutes in, aggravating. Speakerphone seems to last a bit longer and I thought it was immune but happened yesterday. I can't imagine we are the only two with this issue.

does anyone have a lot of crackling for during calls using the headset? I only get it during calls. when i listen to audio through the headset, the speaker is fine. the headset is the actual phone's speaker, not a bluetooth headset.
[Vibrant Android Development] krntehknik303:
Try messing with the headset using the dsp manager see if that helps. Or if not try the mute/unmute.

any comments on battery, gps?
[Vibrant Android Development] edmc:
DNS Settings upon boot are curious

Not bad, mind you.

With WiFi enabled and connected, I reboot my phone. When it comes up, I have a small app that basically does `adb shell getprop net.dns1` (and ...net.dns2 of course) to display the current configured Nameservers. I was surprised to see net.dns1 set to 8.8.8.8 (i.e. Google's Nameserver). Not a bad default, mind you, but unexpected.

If I then disable WiFi and revert to 3G, I of course move over to T-Mobile's Nameservers (i.e. net.dns1 and net.dns2 are both now set to T-Mobile's Nameservers). This is expected.

Now, re-enabling WiFi, net.dns1 get's set to what I expected upon the reboot - i.e. my WiFi AccessPoint/Router's IP Address (and, of course, net.dns2 is blank).

For those playing around with statically setting their DNS Nameservers, I thought this might be interesting as well...

For reference, my wife's Vibrant still running Axura (2.3.1.2 I believe), behaves more as I expected (i.e. upon WiFi enabled reboot, net.dns1 points to my WiFi AccessPoint/Router).
